Catamaran Cruise - Ile aux Bénitiers

WestSea

Catamaran cruise to Ile aux Bénitiers with the best photo spots in Mauritius—dolphins, Crystal Rock, snorkeling, and Sega on the way back.

Catamaran cruise to Ile aux Bénitiers, but not just! This cruise comes with a combination of the best photo spots in Mauritius. This is indeed the best opportunity to not only explore more of Mauritius and its activities but also to level up your Instagram game! We start with a dolphin excursion along the catamaran and head for a swim to the famous Crystal Rock; surrounded by a pristine lagoon, typically warm, shallow and enclosed, with stunning scenery all round, this location is just good for the spirit! The catamaran cruise also stops at several spots that are popular for snorkeling. With lively corals, snorkel your way through the unique marine life Mauritius has to offer. Thereafter, lunch is served on Bénitiers Island. You will also have plenty of time to stroll around the island. Get into some serious Mauritius spirit and culture on your way back—join the crew for some typical Mauritian music and dance to the sounds of Sega!
